[ Were those there before? ]

"No, I'm fine. Thanks for throwing those away, both of you."

"Is ghost lady even gonna show up? She seems all keen on 'fuck you all, you're useless'—"

[ He does dramatic air quotes as he says that part. ]

"—so I seriously can't see her having any reason to update us on shit."

308 leaves the room with a huff, looking for Cleo. He's leaned against the wall, and she goes over to him.

"Hey..."

She lets out a small, unholy screech, and then kicks the wall. Considering that she's not wearing shoes, you might expect her to jump back in pain.

She does not.

She kicks the wall again. Harder.

"The fuck??? You had that many letters on you??? Yeah okay, definitely not healthy."

"Your turn, kid. Throw those away."

[ Cleo realizes he sounds too forceful and quickly backtracks. ]

"I mean- only if you're ready to do so. I'm not gonna force you, just do whatever's comfortable, but it's really for the best if you do."

"...Damn, sorry. Hardly my place to speak, but that's probably not the best way to cope? I dunno, seems like you should try just... leaving it behind instead? Okay I am not wording this right hold the fuck on."

[ For once Cleo thinks about what he's saying! ]

"Keeping the letter around is just gonna make you feel like shit. No matter how you dress it up, you still know what it really said. Fucking awful that she didn't treat you with respect, but you can't really trick yourself into thinking she did. ...Am I making any sense?"

"Bullshit. You can choose not to talk, but don't try and deny the fact that you definitely fucking need to. Fish is right. You are not a good liar."

"And even if you didn't need to, it still wouldn't be a bad idea. So be honest with us."

"..."

[ He read the entire thing. ]

"I didn't mean to, I just didn't expect it to be that."

[ Cleo hesitates again, trying to find a way to not ruin this situation even more. ]

"...Do you have some shit you need to talk about, cause I'm not the best with this stuff but I can still listen if you need an outlet."

[i-hate-tennis-ball]

Why though? Why hate tennis ball? Did tennis steal your girl or something?

"The fuck? No? Why would anyone ever get that bitchy over some love drama?"

"It may not be true for all of them, surprisingly, but the majority of them are real assholes. Seriously, get over yourself. It's probably just a product of their "super advanced" society, but they feel the need to fucking step on anyone they don't see as similar to them. I've seen it happen over and over again now."

[ what is wrong with him. ]

"Fuck, my bad, I didn't think that was personal. It just unfolded when I picked it up, and I didn't think there would be any issue if I—..."

[ He trails off when it sinks in just how much Stitchie is probably going to panic now because of him. There's no use trying to explain himself. ]

hey what did you and your brother do that made you guys so... aggressively angry at each other. like bro... calm down...

"..."

[ Cleo mumbles something about Aspen abandoning him, but that's the most of an answer you'll be getting out of him. He seems intent on not talking openly about it right now. ]

"Fair enough."

[ Cleo hesitates to enter the room, but ends up deciding that its better than being stuck with the voice in the hallway. ]

"Oh- you dropped something."

[ He rushes to pick up the envelope for Stitched, but it folds open when he grabs onto it. It... wouldn't be too bad to read it, right? Cleo decides to quickly scan over it. ]

"..."

[ He slams the letter down on the dresser. Nope, bad idea, bad fucking idea— ]

[i-hate-tennis-ball]

"Why have all of us been told to kill ourselves before? I'll fucking kill whoever said that to you two. Not... counting Fish, that's different."

[ Cleo thinks more about the fact that that's not normal. Hm. ]

"...I probably am losing it then. Eh, not the first time."

oh. or him. or them. or whatever!! :3

"Why do I have a feeling you're talking about a specific someone?"

"Anyways, still no. I'd be a horrible influence on them."

#tbcu #i hate tennis ball #tbcu qna

[i-hate-tennis-ball]

YOU COULD JUST ADOPT OR SOMETHING. NO ONE SAID ANYTHING ABOUT IMPREGNATING YOU??

"I figured that was what you meant???"

[ WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU ASSUME THAT ]

"Anyways, to answer your original question, fuck no. I cannot raise a kid for shit. I can barely raise myself. That kid would end up severely fucked."

#tbcu #i hate tennis ball #tbcu qna

Thoughts on being a father?

"Okay good, you guys heard that too. I'm not entirely fucking losing it. That's the voice that keeps threatening me and telling me to kill myself for some reason."

[ He says this as if it's a completely normal thing to say as he starts walking with Stitched. ]

"So yeah, not fucking with that. Surprisingly the first time it's tried to boss me around though. Usually just spouts shit talking about me being "unnatural" or that I'm "not supposed to exist". Fucking weirdo."

"...Is that normal?"
